Chapter 111
uld it, how could it appear on a bronzeware from the Western Zhou Dynasty" Sun Lao's eyes were full of bewilderment.The ancient gold script is not the script of the Jin Dynasty, it is an ancient scrip...I didn't dare tell Red Sister about what happened back then.
I shook my head silently, this is impossible.
Yao Yumen's words at the time should have just been a joke, with no other meaning. Maybe I overthought it.
After a while of resting, Dr. An, perhaps due to being too nervous, seemed to have gone mad and fell asleep leaning against the wall.
I don't know if it's day or night outside.
Blearily, I fell asleep leaning against the wall. I felt like I'd slept for ages when suddenly there was a noise.
It turned out the guard was afraid we'd die of thirst, so he lowered a bucket of water down with a rope. There was a wooden scoop floating in the bucket.
"Red Sister, An researcher, come quickly, there's water! Let's have some!" I was very thirsty and didn't care about anything else. I scooped up a ladleful of cool water and gulped it down my throat.
I'm not afraid of those people poisoning us. If they wanted to kill me, they wouldn't go through all this trouble. Since they're keeping us around, they must have a use for us. Red Sister knows this too.
Ke An, the researcher, disagreed. She looked fearfully into the bucket of clear water and shook her head frantically. "No, I can't drink it," she said. "There must be poison in the water."
">
"It's fine, look I've already drunk so much and I'm okay. Look at you, your mouth is all dry and cracked, Dr. An, you really need to drink some water."
I scooped up a ladleful of water and brought it to her lips.
"No drinking!" He didn't know where she got so much strength, but she knocked the water ladle right out of his hand.
The water scoop hit the wall, and all the water spilled.
"You... " I was both angry and flustered.
She immediately realized her mistake. She buried her head between her legs, crying uncontrollably like a lost little girl.
"Oh," I sighed, the anger I had felt just moments ago mostly dissipated. Thinking about it from her perspective, seeing all her companions die and being left alone, she must be terrified. After all, she is a rather timid girl.
"If you don't want to drink, don't drink," I said, picking up the water scoop and looking at Hong Jie. "Hong Jie, would you like some more"
"Could there be something on the wall" I saw Hong Jie staring intently at the stone wall.
It's not exactly a stone wall either. This wall below was cast with rammed earth, overall pale and yellowish, very hard. It should have been built at the same time as the pit, and it's possible that this place was once a small burial pit, but for some special reason it wasn't used in the end.
Red sister suddenly stood up, she walked to the wall and gently slid her hand over it.
This spot was just splashed with water, from the water dipper a moment ago.
I walked over in confusion and took a closer look.
As the loess quickly absorbed water, I saw, vaguely and indistinctly, several human facial outlines appear! And these facial outlines were all open-mouthed and closed-eyed!
I was startled and rubbed my eyes hard to see again.
No, I'm not seeing things, it really does look more and more like...
Three-in-one soil absorbs water very quickly. As soon as the water dries, those facial outlines disappear.
"How... what happened" I swallowed nervously, "Red Sister, what just happened Did we see things"
Sister Hong's brow was tightly furrowed, her face a mask of silent displeasure. She rose to her feet, grabbed a bucket, and began to ladle water from it, splashing it against the wall one pailful at a time.
The rammed earth wall has absorbed enough water this time.
Soon, hundreds of facial contours appeared on the entire wall before me! Packed together, these faces were indistinguishable as male or female, all with the same expressionless faces. Their mouths opened and closed, all staring at us.
The researcher was so scared that she screamed non-stop.
"Useless things! Shut up!" Hong Jie glared fiercely, she turned around and kicked An researcher several times. I hurriedly pulled Hong Jie back and pleaded for An researcher.
Then, Red Sister picked up a sharp, small stone from the ground. She suddenly turned back to me and asked if I could pee now.ad, I asked Zabao where he had been the past two days. Zabao said he had been looking for a place of extreme yin energy.In other words, there are two places in the extremely Yin location under Mount B...
